    Latex is cool and all, but the error messages are so frustratingly unhelpful

    Well that's the whole problem right there you numpties. The entire concept of "academic reputation" is **loaded** with bias and thus a counter-productive target. Show some leadership and stop playing this stupid game.

    Tobacco smoking as a possible etiologic factor in bronchiogenic carcinoma. Wynder & Graham, JAMA 1950. Table 1: The survey questions! Why hasn't that become standard practice? Understanding the quality of the data starts with knowing how the questions were asked.

    The first half of my PhD was searching for a problem; the latter half seems like it will be searching for a reason for the solution to exist.

    I’m learning the hard way that plugging a methodological gap is pointless if there’s no reason for it to *be* filled in the first place.

    Digital snake oil lives. Why do people find it so hard to talk about evidence when it comes to apps? Look at this paper. One of the worst I've ever seen. It is written as if it summarises evidence of effectiveness, in fact it just lists vendor claims!

    It’s motivated for different reasons, but this reminds me of “A captain has 10 goats and 20 cows on his boat, how old is he?” type questions in Maths. It gets kids thinking in a way that’s not usually emphasized in school.

    My point is that they’re comparing apples to oranges. They both serve different roles. As for Python, well, that’s kind of the easiest fit for most companies, I would guess. Doesn’t surprise me that it’s more sought after.

    It’s a fun little analysis but it’s not all that meaningful. SQL is primarily for database management whereas R is mainly for analytics. SQL would be much more useful to data engineers than data scientists, a distinction that didn’t really exist in 2014.

    When you hear that a method is optimal, ask 'By what criteria?' and 'Subject to what constraints?'
